Opposition to Proportional Representation in the Lower House, but Support in the Upper House, Stated by Nahid Regarding NCP
National Citizen Party (NCP) Outlines Independent Political Strategy
The National Citizen Party (NCP) has outlined its political strategy for the upcoming national and Constituent Assembly elections, with a focus on moving forward independently and resisting what it terms as "Awami League fascism."
At a meeting attended by leaders from NCP's district and upazila coordination committees across the country, the party's Convener, Nahid Islam, made it clear that the NCP is not considering alliances with major political parties at the moment. However, if a party agrees with the NCP's goals and objectives, they are welcome to join the party.
One of the key points of contention for the NCP is the Proportional Representation (PR) system in the lower house. The party has taken a firm stand against the PR system, a position that contrasts with that of Jamaat-e-Islami and other Islamic parties. Nahid Islam stated that the NCP is not part of Jamaat's simultaneous movement because it does not support PR in the lower house.
The NCP, however, supports the PR system in the upper house. This stance was emphasized during the meeting, which also discussed strategies to expand organizational structures down to union and ward level.
Fakhrul, another leader within the NCP, expressed concern that rallies by Jamaat and other parties are creating unnecessary pressure while discussions are ongoing. He urged for a more peaceful and constructive approach to political negotiations.
The party's future political strategies also include uniting the people and resisting Awami League "fascism." These statements were made by Nahid Islam on 19 September, 20XX, at the party's coordination committee meeting.
It is worth noting that Nahid Islam is currently involved in negotiations to support the National Citizen Party. He has indicated he may leave his government role to join a new party expected to be formed soon.
The NCP's decision to distance itself from the Jamaat-led movement and its stance on the PR system could impact the upcoming elections. The party plans to move forward with its own political objectives and unite the people.
In a statement, Badiul Alam, the NCP leader, reiterated that the party is not considering alliances with major political parties at the moment. However, he also emphasized that the NCP's stance on alliances is currently independent, but open to potential partnerships based on shared goals and objectives.
The meeting following the 19 September coordination committee meeting also discussed strategies to resist Awami League "fascism" and expand the party's organizational structures down to union and ward level. The NCP leaders expressed their commitment to these goals and their determination to make a positive impact in the upcoming elections.
